Arm rests

I am adding arm rests to my '66 custom cab. I bought the arm rests, but I didn't see a mounting kit available. Can anyone tell me what size screws I need to use? Do I need anything else to mount them besides screws?

Custom Cabs came with right & left armrests as part of the package.

There was no "mounting kit" originally. Attaching parts:

(4) BA-7024146-A .. Armrest Clip (2 per side) / Obsolete

DON SANDERSON FORD in Glendale AZ has 74 = 623-842-8643.

WESLEY OBSOLETE PARTS in Liberty KY has 93 = 606-787-5293.

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 94 = 800-543-4959.

CARPENTER NOS OBSOLETE PARTS in Concord NC has 174 = 800-476-9653.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(4) 353421-S8 .. No. 14 -10 x 1 3/4" long Truss Head Philips Screws (2 per side) / Obsolete

Couldn't find any NOS, try a hardware store or (edit) "Squire" Don (camperspecial65)-See post 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Same armrests & attaching parts: 1961/66 F100/1100 / 1961/67 Econoline / 1963/69 N/NT/T500/1000 / 1967/69 F800/1000 / 1959/60 Ford Custom/Galaxie / 1960/63 Falcon/Comet.

Thanks, Bill. I guess someone removed the arm rests at some point.

Switch out the screws to Allen heads. Those screws can get rusted and a REAL pain in the butt to get out. I'd also us anti-seize compound. I use that stuff on a bunch of screws and bolts. Too bad it doesn't work on the joints in my bod.
